Here I can only see such stories about gambling where most of the people have only lost money. in few cases I can see that some people have made a little money from gambling while most of the are lost a lot of their money. so we can conclude the result here is gambling is one of the most difficult way of making money.
Thats the point that it's hard to get money from gambling, that is what all gamblers have to remember that gambling is not a place to get profit because of the enormous level of risk and what determines profit is not you but luck. because in many cases people become addicts because they think they can live from gambling income..
Certainly, some people know that, just that some are so adamant and so fond of what they want to believe in that facing the reality becomes a very difficult option for them. It is an easy thing, admit that there is nothing much you are getting from gambling and be ready to live with that, or simply just stay away if you know you cannot live with the idea of losing at all as this is the case where a lot of people usually have problem, and better you are in control from the start, than trying to gain control back at the end.
In majority of the cases people realize this only when they either suffer huge losses or when they are out of everything like all savings gone , took some money from friends and cannot repay it etc. Thus feels bad for such people who cannot understand such a simple thing that enjoy the moment and not go for money making form gambling.
Is it not even good if you realize where you have gone wrong after losing badly? A lot of people tend to push their luck further, hoping in some way they can still be able to recover what they have lost and then the ability to control that impulse as they keep losing keeps becoming hard and difficult. For someone who is able to quickly get a grasp of them-selves, it is indeed a very good start to being in control over your mistakes and making necessary amendments.
